However --- I've been buying < $200 refurbished machines -- one to replace my Linux box, which died completely, and one for Vista that I needed for testing my web stuff on IE8, Chrome, and Safari/Win. My "dearest one" got stuck with the original Vista machine (also because I needed one for testing, but between she and the kids I can't get on it at all). She despises it with all of her heart, and *really* wants a Mac. I keep threatening to install Ubuntu to see if she'd like it. That is what I wish I'd done from the beginning, but I 'haven't had time" with this project in late, late, late beta. "Sorry, Honey, but you are stuck with your Vista machine while I spend more money than we have on a shiny-new Mac (to add to he other 3 computers I have in my office). You understand, right? (Right???)"
